    Pros +

    • Front desk couldn't speak English had to call son to translate, rooms not clean and office is not open for any service or breakfast as advertised..not accommodations at all..never stay again..not even a 2 star rating..grrrr
    • Bed was comfortable
    • There was nothing to like about it the front desk staff / owner was very rude and treated us as if we were some kind of nuisance troublemakers and unwelcomed. Once my husband checked us in they stood at the back entrance of the office building and gawked

    Cons -

    • Where do I start? The directions kept taking me wrong place took me 20 something minutes to get there. I had already paid for the room so I stayed . There was white patch stuff all over all the walls. Dirt on the walls mold in tub no breakfast at 805
    • Very run down not a very good neighborhood
    • We had to check in extremely late as in after 7:00 in the morning due to having mechanical issues and being unable to get there any sooner we knew we were going to have to check out in just a few hours and we were okay we only wanted a shower

    absolutely nothing good about this hotel. It is dirty. The owner is rude!

    Everything!! Roaches bed bugs make up on "clean" sheets hairs that weren't mine all over. Smelled horrible. No fitted sheets. The cheapest pillows you can buy. Prison style breakfast. The owner and his wife should probably speak better English. Roaches!!!

    Very courteous and professional staff. The room was clean and comfortable. Everything in the room worked as expected.

    The location.

    When i ordered a wake up call, it never happened, if you are not going to do the call do not offer it as a service.

    The outlets charged slowly
